Posted on 18th Jul 2022 by rohit kumar

Ravindra Jadeja won everyone's heart with his fielding in the third ODI between India and England played in Manchester on Sunday. He once again proved why he is the best fielder in the world. Jadeja first caught Liam Livingstone and then Jos Buttler in the same over of Hardik Pandya and sent him to the pavilion.

 

Sir Jadeja dominated in the 37th over

 

Hardik Pandya was bowling in the 37th over of England's innings. On the third ball of the over, Jadeja took an amazing catch by Liam Livingstone at deep square leg. He was just a step away from the boundary. During this, his balance also deteriorated. Thought that the foot would touch the boundary, but he took a brilliant catch while handling himself. Hardik himself was also stunned. Livingstone got out after scoring 27 runs.

 

On the last ball of the same over, Jadeja once again caught a blazing catch. Jos Buttler was playing on set. Butler pulls off the last ball of the over. Jadeja caught the ball running to his left at a deep square leg. He ran from deep square leg to deep mid-wicket to take the catch. When Butler was dismissed, the team's score was 199 runs for 7 wickets. If Butler had stayed, the score would probably have crossed 300.

 

Hardik Pandya took the most wickets

 

Hardik Pandya was the highest wicket-taker for India in this match. He took 2 wickets for 24 runs in 7 overs. Yuzvendra Chahal took 3 wickets for 60 runs. Apart from this, Mohammed Shami and Siraj took 2-2 wickets.
